Sippers are 3D-printed, open-source devices for measuring liquid ingestion in rodents. Sippers were developed in the Creed and Kravitz Labs at Washington University. You can visit hackaday to learn how to build Sippers, and see this publication for a description of their use
SipperViz is a Python GUI for graphing data produced by Sippers. SipperViz can be used to:
- Create plots visualizing drink frequency and duration
- Label and assign liquids associated with Sipper recordings
- Average data from different recordings based on the bottle, liquid, or experimental group
- Concatenate data from different recordings
- Return the data and code used to create plots
SipperViz is a tkinter application which uses Python's matplotlib and seaborn packages to create visualizations.
Check out FED3 Viz for a related project.
See the releases page to get the latest version of SipperViz. There are installation instructions on how to run SipperViz as either an executable or a Python script.
There is no manual for SipperViz; however, there is a video tutorial series which covers the use of SipperViz from installation to plotting.
